Corssing the Border



London, Ontario
August 11, 2013

Within the first driving hour from Detroit team five made its way to the Canadian border. We had heard that crossing the border may be a tough task with all the luggage we had. Luckily the process went smooth and we were in Canada in no time. 

We got acquainted with the local law enforcement right away. Five minutes into crossing the border we got pulled over by a cop in a pick-up truck. He couldn’t have been nicer and talked with us for a few minutes. Apparently in Canada if you’re in the left lane you need to be driving fast. He told us that you basically can’t be going the speed limit if you’re in the far lane. It was quite funny, and we learned that in Canada we are right lane people. 

Team 5 at the Canadian Border

This week’s event is unique because we are working with the Canadian Junior Golf Association. The event is going to be co-run by both organizations. We picked up two interns this week from the CJGA that will be helping us out. 

Even though we were traveling internationally this was one of our shorter rides. It only took us about two hours to get to London. This week should be a unique experience for our team, and one that I’m looking forward to.
